This is no laughing matter to me: To begin with, I am borderline computer illiterate. I can get my email, navigate Facebook, YouTube, and some of my favorite sites.
Over the years, my wife has spent several hundred dollars on computer editing programs for me, all of which were a total waste of money!
Somehow, I just didn't "get it". After my nephew, who is a computer whiz told my wife not to waste any more $$$ if I couldn't fathom Photoshop Elements. I finally found Picasa, which I have used for years with only minimal problems.
I would like to graduate to an editing program that will have a few more capabilities, be usable, but very simple. I would like to have other capability, like making composites, panoramics, straightening converging verticals and removing unwanted things from photos, in addition to the simple things...cropping, and adjusting color balance. So far, I don't haven't been able to make a folder on our computer.
O.K., I'd like some suggestions regarding simple ways to upgrade my computer skills, and easy to use editing programs.
Thanks!
